SUBSURFACE UTILITY MAPPING

SUBSURFACE UTILITY ENGINEERING

Rice Associates provides many solutions to utility challenges. Unanticipated costs and major schedule delays can be attributed to a lack of information on buried infrastructure. We have the expertise and equipment in-house to accurately depict and map underground utilities on a wide range of projects, thus reducing the risk of damaged utilities or contractor claims.

We meet industry standard CI/ASCE 38-02 on all projects

The benefits to subsurface utility engineering can be quantified in cost savings and reduced contractor claims. By identifying buried utilities, damages and claims can be avoided. This damage prevention reduces schedule and cost to any project.

Standard Of Care

The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) has developed an important standard of care guideline, Standard Guideline for the Collection and Depiction of Existing Subsurface Utility Data, CI/ASCE 38-02.

This standard guideline describes four quality levels of utility depiction:
